Buying a used 2025 Kia Sorento Hybrid? Check these 2 recalls first

2 NHTSA recalls · 42 owner complaints on file

The open recalls here are lighting and display related: exterior lights that can shut off and an instrument display that may go blank while driving, so visibility and information rather than fire risk. What stands out is where the 42 unverified owner complaints cluster, in engine, power train and fuel/propulsion system, a different area from the recalls; one crash and two injuries are listed. For a recent model year that is a meaningful volume of powertrain-area reports.

Before you buy

1. Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
2. Confirm the headlight/taillight and instrument display recall remedies were applied
3. Drive long enough to feel gear shifts and engine-to-electric transitions
4. Ask whether the cluster has ever blanked or the car hesitated on acceleration
5. Open recalls are repaired free at any Kia dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
